Built something special. Travelled the world. Let it go. Now, I'm older, wiser & wealthier. Ads + Brand Strategist | Consultant 🇬🇧🇨🇩

Over the last 8 years, I built a 6-figure creative production company working with celebs and influencers all while visiting the world

Then, in 2020, everything stopped.🛑

I burned out and the yearning for location freedom
pushed me away from building the business anymore.
It didn’t help that the core team had different plans moving forward.

After a slow start in 2013, 
from 2017 onwards we produced and created brand marketing content for
→ Hearst, Forbes, BBC World News, Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and 
→ First Afronation in Ghana 
→ Celebrities and influencers like Patricia Bright, Eddie Kadi, and Jourdan Riane.
→ Entrepreneurial leaders like Bianca and Byron Cole
→ Luxury destination weddings. A lucrative side hustle. 

A lot…I know, but it got too much, and I decided there must be another way. 
To make 6 figures, with fewer moving parts. More leverage 
and more location freedom.

Having built the MCM London brand on social media, 
I realized that attention was the new currency online and where the attention goes 
the money is soon to follow.

So, here I am, taking the experience of working in the most attention-driven industries 
to help solopreneurs and organizations increase sales and influence by building brands online and monetize on social media.

Sustainable eCommerce UX Specialist | Conversion-Boosting Design for Ethical Brands

Most founders put everything into building their product.

→ The formulas.
→ The ingredients.
→ The packaging.
→ The story.

But their Shopify store?
It’s often an afterthought.

Not because they don’t care -
but because it’s not their zone of expertise.

It’s not what they’ve mastered.
And they’re not sure what matters most.

But here’s the reality:
Your Shopify store is your product.

It’s the experience people buy through.
It’s how they trust you.
And it’s what turns that trust into revenue.

That’s where I come in.

I design high-converting Shopify stores for sustainable brands -
without losing what makes them unique.

I created the Bespoke eCommerce Process to help sustainable brands grow faster -
without sacrificing their identity.
It’s a hands-on, insight-driven method that blends UX, conversion psychology, and clean design.

→ No guesswork.
→ No templates.
→ No generic advice.

Here’s what past clients have said:
